Ingredients
Scale
Juices
- 100ml cranberry juice
- ½ orange, juiced (approximately 30ml)
- 80ml sparkling white grape juice
Herbs & Garnishes
- 6 fresh sage leaves
Others
- Around 4 ice cubes
Instructions
- Prepare the glasses: Pour 50ml of cranberry juice into each of two champagne coupe or wine glasses.
- Add orange juice and stir: Divide the freshly squeezed orange juice evenly between the two glasses, then stir gently to combine the juices.
- Add sage leaves and ice: Place 3 fresh sage leaves and 1-2 ice cubes into each glass to infuse a subtle herbal flavor and chill the drink.
- Top with sparkling grape juice: Carefully top each glass with 40ml of sparkling white grape juice to add effervescence and a sweet finish.
- Serve immediately: Give a gentle stir if desired, then serve your Cranberry Spritz right away, enjoying the vibrant and refreshing flavors.
Notes
- Use fresh orange juice for the best flavor; bottled juice will alter the taste.
- Adding sage leaves directly into the glass adds an aromatic touch, but they can be muddled slightly for a stronger herbal note.
- Adjust the amount of sparkling white grape juice to your taste preference for sweetness and fizziness.
- Serve in chilled glasses for an extra cool experience.
- This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free.
